TELEPHONE CALLS
Placing Telephone Calls
NOTE: Telephone calls can be placed and received only if that service is
available to you and your transceiver has been programmed appropri-
ately. A microphone equipped with a telephone keypad is required to dial
the telephone number.
The telephone calling feature allows you to place and receive tele-
phone calls using your transceiver. The following information describes
how these calls are made with LTR operation. If you can make telephone
calls with conventional operation, the procedure may be somewhat
different and your system operator will then provide additional informa-
tion. Proceed as follows:
1. Turn transceiver power on and set the volume as described starting on
page 15.
2. Select the system and group programmed for telephone calls. When a
telephone group is selected, is displayed.
3. To obtain the dial tone, briefly press the PTT switch. If the proceed tone
is used, press the PTT switch until a beep sounds. If a dial tone is then
heard, proceed to step 4.
Busy and Out-Of-Range Conditions
Busy and out-of-range conditions are indicated the same as with LTR
standard calls described on page 19. The following additional features
may be available with telephone calls:
Busy - If Busy Queuing is programmed (see page 42), the call is auto-
matically placed in a queue when the PTT switch is released. The
Busy Queuing mode is indicated by “IN QUEUE” in the display.
